GASHER - ORIGINAL CHARACTER CUSTOM NINJA TOY [GIJOE MARVEL LEGENDS SCALE] BY DSNG!
Another new one! This is Gasher, [Original Character] a cool ninja with Ice Powers, from my DSNG Sci Fi Series.
The base body was Marvel Legends Paladin and the unmasked head came from Erik Killmonger. And the second masked head came from an armored Spider-man.
I sculpted all of his armor, gauntlets and boots. Mounted upon his back, his sword came from Wolverine, wile the batons came from Night Thrasher. The sculpted claw-like weapon on his right arm is held by two magnets, and it can be placed on his left or right gauntlets. He has multiple guns and swords, all removable. The blade at his left hip was custom made. And he was spray-painted for the base black color, before he was hand-painted with Tamiya paints. Gasher is teammates with Tenila, the big tall redhead gal that I made some weeks ago [shes in my Gallery, HERE]. Thanks for looking, Enjoy and Share!

COMMANDER MONICA, FIREHAWK SOLDIER CUSTOM TOY [MARVEL LEGENDS SCALE] BY DSNG!
Here's an Original Character from the DSNG Sci Fi Series: Commander Monica Zafari!
Moncia is a Firehawk soldier, linked to the Taranian United Forces. She's a redhead with a fiery attitude. She focuses on air-combat and she has various combat armored suits.
The base body was Overwatch Ultimates Farah, and the head came from Spiderwoman. And I sculpted her armor pieces, legs, arms, chest, shoulder-pads and her hair. One of her former bulky shoulder-pads was removed and turned into her left-arm's blaster gauntlet, and the two silver gun-barrels were added to it. That blaster gauntlet is held by a magnet. The other assault rifle came from ebay and was sculpted.
Her ponytail is attached by a magnet, so it can swivel. Plus the blue wings were from the original toy and they were spray-painted red, while they can swivel and "open-up" as well, as shown in the last DSNG Blog picture [The full set was 15 cool pics]. Monica was hand-painted with Tamiya and Americana paints. Thanks for looking, Enjoy and Share!

MS. TENILA [TEN] THOMPSON - ORIGINAL CHARACTER, FROM MAVEN'S COLLECTIBLES / MARVEL LEGENDS SCALE!
A few weeks ago I created a new Original Character for my DSNG Sci Fi Series based on the model from the "Maven's Collectibles 1/12th scale Tall Jan Doe body". So she's a big girl, roughly 7 inches tall.
Her name is Tenila "Ten" Thompson. And she's gifted with growth / cell multiplication [aka Multiply], and immense super strength.
Her armor pieces were sculpted and her lower legs came from a male Marvel Legends toy [since her original legs were a bit too warped and she couldn't stand up straight].
She came with about four other head-sculpts and four hair pieces, but I picked the face and hair that suited my purpose. And her jacket came from Star Lord. Her gun holster on the left side came from Paladin, while the one on the right was sculpted. She was spray-painted from gray to black. Then she was hand-painted with Tamiya and Americana paints. She has three guns and one dagger. And the DSNG Blog hosts the before and after pics... Thanks for looking, Enjoy and Share!

CUSTOM OPTIMUS PRIME WAR MACHINE VER 2.0 TOY [ MARVEL LEGENDS SCALE ] BY DSNG!
Here's the Version 2.0 of the Optimus Prime War Machine toy. The base model was Marvel Legends End Game War Machine, and the flexible wings came from a Transformers Prime Ultra Magnus. I had to sculpt a lot of his armored parts and his helmet. The wheels on his upper-thighs came from a toy car. The wings are removable, since they're held by magnets. He was hand-painted with Tamiya paints. I almost wish he could transform... Anyway the original Version 1.0 is in my gallery over HERE. Thanks for looking! Enjoy and Share!

CUSTOM ZEALOT WILDCATS TOY / ACTION FIGURE [MARVEL LEGENDS SCALE] BY DSNG!
Here's my Zealot custom toy from Jim Lee's Wildcats! Shoutout to my friend Windblock2007 for inspiring me to do this one!
I grew up in the 80s. So I'll be 40 this year, and I still remember watching the WildCats cartoon show on TV, when it first aired back in the 90s.
This gal turned out to be a lot harder than I expected... over 2 freakin' weeks of work, on and off! LOL!
The lower body was Marvel Legends Lady Deadpool, and the upper arms and chest came from Lady Thor. The lower legs came from Carol Danvers [All father series] and the head came from Thundra.
I had to sculpt all of her custom armor, and her frontal hair, while the ponytail came from Lady Deadpool [I added it with a magnet, so it can swivel]. her swords came from Citizen V, and her backpack was custom made. She was hand-painted with Tamiya and Americana paints. Thanks for looking, Enjoy and Share!

Another new super solider! This is Commander Baron, one of my Original Characters from the DSNG Sci Fi Series. And he's a Sigma Guard soldier, which means he hails from planet Taran.
The base body was Marvel Legends War Machine. And the head came from Star Lord, while I had to sculpt his mohawk and recolor his skin tone, to give him the dark / chocolate skin I needed. The weapons and the Gatling gun were all custom-made, except the two machine-guns held at his hips, which came from ebay. His armor was sculpted on top of the base toy model, as were the attachments to his chest, and his shoulder-pads. He was hand-painted with Tamiya and Americana paints. He has a total of 8 guns / blasters, while most of them are held by magnets. Thanks for looking! Enjoy and Share!

CUSTOM COMMANDER JAVIER - ALPHA SENTURI TOY / ACTION FIGURE [MARVEL LEGENDS SCALE] BY DSNG!
Another new one! This time it's one of my Original DSNG Characters, Commander Javier. And he is an Alpha Senturi soldier, like Prince Azzar and Commander Yatalia.
The base body was Marvel Legends War Machine. And the head came from Mbaku [build-a-figure], and I had to sculpt the hairstyle that I wanted, while repainting the face to create a Latino skin tone for Javier.
The concept armor was sculpted on top of the toy's bulky frame, along with some removable weapons like the Gatling gun on his left shoulder-pad, held by magnets. His belt came from Erik Kilmonger. And the large heavy-blaster in his left hand came from another ML toy, while the four assault rifles came from ebay [two held at his hips, and two more on his back]. He was spray-painted for the base-coat with black, and then hand-painted with DecoArts and Tamiya paints. He has a total of 7 guns, and the arm-cannon on his right arm is not removable. Thanks for looking! Enjoy and share!

EXPLORING DSNG PART 34 - DSNG BOOK 23 HAS BEEN LAUNCHED!

Yatalia is a female Commander and she's a bad ass fighter. And she's a Gothic gal, yet she is social and congenial with her associates. In some ways, she can be viewed as a dark rose. She is a super soldier and she's a high level Muay Thai combat expert... and she's she got the ChunLi thighs.
Here is the Overview of the latest ebook:
_________________________________________________
The dynamic sci fi adventure continues with the Twenty-third installment of the DSNG series!

But that very night, over on Avera, in the cold northern mega state of Lavernia, an Alpha Senturi soldier with ties to crooked politicians finds himself in an underground gambling center. And the gifted soldier arrived looking like a civilian. But soon chaos ensues and a homicide occurs, as the Alpha Senturi ends up getting killed by a mysterious assailant. But there appears to be more than one culprit in this heinous crime, along with multiple victims, all slain without a discernible motive.
[image error] Thus the police detectives in Lavernia and the Federal Agents from the National Crime Investigation Agency are summoned, to carefully investigate the homicide. But on the same night that the Alpha soldier was slain, an aerial armed robbery also takes place in Swanburg City, which was perpetrated by a mysterious gang utilizing two disparate armed hovervehicles. And one of those vehicles that the gang utilized for the heist was an armored SUV, specifically a Ram-Rod TAC2500. And one of the felons displayed super powers amidst the nighttime robbery, resulting in several dead officers and extensive collateral damage. The stolen merchandise was recently imported, while it belongs to Vector Weapons Systems.
[image error] Yet as the dust settles, the detectives have no idea of whether or not the two recent crimes are connected. Soon a corporate e-mail is dispatched to the top NCI Federal Agents and the leading law enforcement officials, in both South Philadelphia and Lavernia. And the request for assistance soon reaches the inbox of Commander Yatalia Yentoshima. Thus Yatalia, a fellow Alpha Senturi black-ops operative, is forced to step up to look into the initial homicide, which involved an Alpha soldier that she was acquainted with many years ago.
And as the investigation unfolds, a mysterious Entradan artifact gradually comes to light… a highly sought-after item tagged as the Book Of Death...
- Part 23 of 23 e-books. Rated M for Mature; 890 pages

CUSTOM COVER GIRL G.I.JOE TOY / ACTION FIGURE [MARVEL LEGENDS SCALE] BY DSNG!
Another new one for 2020, here is Cover Girl from GIJoe!
I decided to give her a unique redesign, with a zipped-up jacket, to match her boss. And the base body was Marvel Legends Scream. Her entire costume was sculpted and the hands came from Black Widow, while her belt came from Lady Deadpool. Her guns came from ebay and they were customized, while her face came from Mockingbird.
I sculpted her hair and the ponytail was added with a magnet. I chose to make her a blonde, as opposed to a light-ginger / fiery redhead. I used brown spray-paint for the base color, before painting over her body with Tamiya and Americana paints. The General Hawk custom toy is in my gallery HERE. Thanks for looking, and enjoy and share!
